PATNA: Disputing the claim of the UPA government at the Centre about India achieving nine per cent growth rate, senior BJP leader Dr Murali Manohar Joshi on Wednesday sought a review of the present "economic model" as economic benefits have not percolated to poorer sections.

Addressing newspersons, Joshi said the Centre to undertake a review of the "economic model" so that the deprived and downtrodden sections benefit.

Charging the Centre with "not making available adequate funds" to ensure that the birth centenary of well known poet Ramdhari Singh Dinkar was celebrated in "a most splendid way" across the country, Joshi demanded that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh should intervene immediately in the matter.

He expressed surprise over the Centre's alleged silence on the issue.
